Product Description

Lion’s Mane 8:1 Benefits

Lion’s mane is a medicinal mushroom utilized for strong cognitive enhancing effects and is considered one of the most powerful brain optimizing fungi. The most important benefit of lion’s mane mushroom is to stimulate nerve-growth factor (NGF) in certain regions of the brain. In a 2008 study in the Biological and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, researchers found lion’s mane extract could help patients increase NGF in regions of the brain like the hippocampus, which are responsible for memory formation.

Aside from the memory formation and neurogenesis benefits, lion’s mane mushroom can help to reduce symptoms of anxiety and increase mood in many individuals (especially the elderly). For older people lion’s mane mushroom is particular important because the product can act as a neuroprotective agent.

Lion’s Mane 8:1 Dosage

The dosage recommendations for lion’s mane mushroom will depend highly upon the extract that you purchase. A strong lion’s mane mushroom dosage of 500 – 1000 mg per day assuming 20% beta-glucans is adequate for most people. Many grams are needed if you have a weaker form of lion’s mane.

Lion’s mane capsules are usually well-absorbed, but it is worthwhile to seek products (such as this one), which are made with the fruiting bodies of the lion’s mane fungus rather than the mycelium.

Lion’s Mane 8:1 Mode of Action

The primary mechanism involved with most medicinal mushrooms are polysaccharides called beta-glucans. When you purchase lion’s mane capsules made from fruiting bodies as opposed to mycelium (which most poorly products are made of), the effect comes through these psychoactive beta-glucans, which alter mRNA expression causing downstream effects for your brain and body.

I am giving the rating for service, I have not been taking the product long enough for any noticeable effects, my purchase was based on the experiences of my daughter, she is very happy with the product.

I took one capsule at night. The next morning, I felt more refreshed and about to bounce right out of bed, like my mind did not have sleep jet lag. I felt crisp and clear. I attribute it to the Lion’s Mane because there was nothing else different that I had done. I even had a stressful evening the night before, which would usually cause me to drag even more in the morning, but that was not the case. I still take it every night and feel great. I took an extra capsule the other day in the afternoon, with my CBD from American Shaman, because I was feeling a little foggy and had missed a dose of one of my daily medications, and it took the edge off drastically. Thank you Pure Nootropics for offering this amazing product at an affordable price, and Joe Rogan’s podcast with Paul Stamets, and nootropedia.com that linked me here for purchase. I have already purchased one as a gift for my boss, who is a mad scientist when it comes to all things health/wellness, and suggested the product to several others!
